Cannon is another thing people need not worry about. I have something
like 50 shooting cannon service packs (what can I say, back when I was
looking for people to swap 6716 parts with, I got an offer to get cannon
service packs from Italy, cost to me was about $5.25 per pack of two
cannon), plus a bag of about 20-30 cannon.
I'd leave the 6289 at 2 center sections. 6289 is the only stock ship
with 2 center sections.
